[00:00.00]Lesson 13 SARS Bring Chances for China's Environment Protection
[00:09.80]SARS has exerted both negative
[00:16.46]and positive influences on the future development of China.
[00:22.80]The environmental protection industry is one area that will benefit
[00:30.67]from the opportunities brought by the sudden occurrence of the disease.
[00:37.90]During the SARS epidemic,the proper disposal
[00:44.56]of SARS-re-lated waste was a critical task that required urgent attention
[00:53.50]and the government spent millions of yuan dealing with the problem.
[01:00.26]Suddenly our people were awake to the danger we may incur
[01:07.71]if the medical waste is not wisely disposed of.
[01:13.67]Suddenly our people realized that the issue had been ignored
[01:20.64]for a long time and that the infrastruture
[01:26.28]to deal with the problem was inadequate.
[01:31.04]But now more investment is on its way,to put a long term solution in place.
[01:40.10]SARS has not only alreted the government
[01:45.27]to put more effort on environmental protection;
[01:51.12]it has alos provided a good lesson to the public.
[01:57.60]Experts pointed out that China's environmental protection industry
[02:04.87]is still at an initial stage of development.
[02:10.32]There are only a few large companies in the field;
[02:16.70]most of them are equipment-pro-cessing plants
[02:22.05]rather than high technology oriented companies.
[02:28.01]But the SARS epidemic has speeded up the upgrading
[02:34.17]and development of the environmental protection industry in China.
